She wants him. He'll take Everything.
London, 1839. Bonnie is running from a terrible crime. She and her lover Crawford have gone too far this time, and now she needs to disappear.
When Crawford secures her a position as lady’s maid in a grand house on the Thames, Bonnie thinks she has found safety. But Endellion is a strange place, haunted by the recent death of its mistress. As Bonnie comes to understand the family who live here, she begins to question what secrets might be lying behind the house’s paper-thin walls. Because Crawford is watching, and perhaps he is plotting his greatest trick yet . . .

I wish I didn't have this nonsense in my head. I like EM's style, but this was way too dark. There are way too many moral issues in this (including rape) for it to be entertaining.
